I cried today for a situation that doesn’t even involve me.

I cried because I don’t know what to do, or say or how to help.

I cried because my heart hurts for someone else.

I cried because sometimes there is nothing else you can do.

I cried. I hurt. I’m confused.

So many emotions are running through my mind.

I’m overthinking and analyzing and trying desperately not to fall into old habits.

I want to throw myself at the situation and try and take control and pull and shove and make everything okay again.

This is a situation where I have absolutely no control…none.

I have to trust, I have to find peace, I have to be okay with not being in control.

I want to help but sometimes the best way to help is by not helping and wait.

Waiting is something I am not good at. Waiting is hard.
